1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

objectiveSurgical simulation has been shown to improve efficiency, performance, and time to mastery for complicated procedures, but simulation training is not always considered when introducing new devices or products. As part of a performance improvement project, we sought to design and evaluate simulation training for the skin cell suspension autograft (SCSA) with surgery residents during their Burn rotation.

methodsResidents were asked to read instructional materials and watch training videos before coming into the simulation lab for the training session supervised by a Burn surgeon. A qualitative survey was designed and administered after completion of the rotation.

resultsTwelve residents have completed the training thus far. Their feedback from the training session was rated on a five-point Likert scale and indicated that the simulation activity was an appropriate length (4.6/5.0), was thorough (4.8/5.0), and led to more confidence (4.4/5.0) and less apprehension (4.4/5.0) when performing the procedure on live patients. This was followed by their use of the product in the operating room with complete success.

conclusionsThe novel SCSA training shows great promise for improving the confidence and performance of surgical residents. This could allow for a shorter time for residents to become independent in its use, thereby allowing for increased operative efficiency with the opportunity to significantly improve trainee expertise.
